Tropical Storm Isaac Update

As of  the 8 am briefing from the National Hurricane Center in Miami Tropical Storm Isaac is currently located 95 miles ESE of Guantanamo, Cuba with sustained winds of 60mph and is moving NW at 14 mph. 

Currently Broward adn Miami-Dade counties are under a Tropical Storm warning, which means tropical storm conditions are expected within the next 36 hours.

A hurricane warning is in effect for the Florida Keys and the West Coast of Florida from Bonita Beach southward. A Hurricane Warning expects Hurricane conditions in the next 36 hours.

With that said, the Club will be closed all day tomorrow, Sunday 26 August and Monday 27 August and will reopen on Tuesday 28 August. We can expect showers and thunderstorms not directly connected with Isaac through today with Tropical Storm Conditions showing up early tomorrow afternoon. I would also like to point out that we will be on the "Dirty" or NE side of the storm which normally means a lot of rain and gusty but not sustained winds. The storm has also been meandering, which they all do, so we all have to be prepared for a path that brings it closer to us here in South Florida.

Stay tuned to the blog and our Facebook page for updates and please, be prepared and BE SAFE. Good luck everyone.
